wait so... if only the creator can use a pinglist.. that is going to go poorly for the gen 1 hoarders who like to be pinged for each gen one sale...... I can't find every user on flight rising and subscribe to their pinglist.

please fix. thats going to be awful. ty

IMPORTANT NOTE: The ping command can only be used by the pinglist's creator, so no one can co-opt your pinglist to annoy other players.


One final note: In the near future, we will be removing the option to send "mass pings". Simply put, this means the method of pinging multiple users that has existed until now.

Please reconsider this. The "gen one pinglist" is essential for dragon sales, and if only the creator can ping the list and you remove the option to mass-ping, then the gen one pinglist is not possible anymore. This makes it difficult for players to find gen ones they want, such as double and triple gen ones. This is also disastrous for the skin/accent community (GASP), old dragon/ID sellers and buyers, glitch collectors, dom pinglists, artists, etc.

Will we be able to share the use of ping lists? The use case of "A ping list that can be used by multiple people to ping everyone on the list" would completely fall flat if not.

There are SO MANY of these. In fact, most large user-created ping lists fall under this use case.

I would also like to add that many of these kinds of lists only want "managers" to be able to use it, not every single person on the list.

[quote name="Lyvenex" date="2023-10-26 09:34:24" ] pinglists are cool and epic and i appreciate them sooo much but i think making them only able to be used by the creator + planning to not allow "mass pings" in the future is gonna throw a wrench in some communities. like off the top of my head dom stuff and g1 sales kinda relies a lot on having big pinglists people can share (unless i'm severely misunderstanding how those communities operate??) [/quote] I'm concerned about this as well.
